About This File

This is a compilation of the WADs entered in Doomworld's eighteenth speedmapping exercise. Participants were given 100 minutes to create a Doom 2 level on a certain theme. This week's theme was to build a tech base in the sky.

dwspd turns 18, it's now an adult! and with it we have the techbase theme again, except this time in the sky! well if there's anything to really say it's this, the quality of these speedmaps is generally a lot better. first level? meh. second? hmm I actually enjoyed the first part of this, but the exit is broken. then the third map, you guessed it, Fredrik's back. he employs a load of copy-paste which is fairly debatable whether it's good or bad. it's a slaughtermap alright, one that even for a speedmap manages to slowdown machines. perhaps skippable? MAP04 has lots of snipers at the beginning. MAP05 is a beginners work, while the sixth level also looks the part, but plays well enough. MAP07 is pretty tricky. what a nice set, really, gameplay and design are of course mixed but of the better mixed kind.

Seven speedmaps from September 2001. Map01, 02 are nothing; 03 is a kind of NUTS-lite meets Gothic99, with such a volume of copy-and-paste detail that it slows down my machine (in 2010!). It's as bad as it sounds, although you're curious, I can tell. Map04 decent but monotonous, Map05 well-made but short, Map06 too spartan to be fun, Map07 feels like Map03 done right, except you can fall into space and not die. Unlike real life.

I liked the big outdoor level, it was most fun. That level needs a up to date computer. 4/4/07

      Unloved

      I genuinely enjoyed this mod with its level design and music. It was challenging and interesting and it kept me playing a while after beating it to try to find anything. though I would say it was slightly repetitive and overwhelming with enemies at some moments.

      The Darkening Episode 2
      By LouigiVerona · Posted
      Writing a review for Darkening 2 is tough. It's a beloved megawad, and for good reason. As many other reviewers have said, it is historically a very important project.   It was an important megawad for me personally. I fell in love with the first level in particular. The music, the realistic architecture, so reminiscent of the video games of the 90s... It all left a lasting impression. And it was one of the most beautiful wads I've seen at the time.   But I rarely played anyt

      A competently made map, for sure, but fun? It's way too long and repetitive, with same-y combat & ambush scenarios used again and again, and with way too much enemies, and not that much of a challenge, even for me who isn't exactly fond of "SUPER HARD WAD #9263!!!!11!. You can cut the whole thing in half, and then cut THAT half in half, and it would be a better map. Is it bad? No, just a little bit above average, mostly because it drags a bit too long.

      Generally good map design, but the difficulty as is the case with pwads tends to be uneven even on HMP, especially when you mix them with what slaughtermaps tend to be (monster spam). Too many parts where, after pressing a switch, you'll spend some time killing enemies only to realise the map maker tried to get cute and spawned a bunch of hidden archviles somewhere to start reviving everyone while you were busy wasting ammo. This is especially unfun in parts with very little cover where you'll b

      The Revenant Problem

      I like the part where I pay for the numerous murders I committed by getting beaten up by either a Mancubus or an Arachnotron, it changed my outlook on Monster Priority. Thank you "Problematic" Revenant #7, I have yet to find a way to repay him.
